Sommerville's posting of minifig heads that were POV improved. I added the

of all those segments.

Let me know what you think.


I'm glad to see that some work it being done on the primitive level with the
new L3P commands.  I hope this trend will continue and the upgraded parts
will be incorperated into the official library.

Hi,

I forgot to say thank you Chuck and Lars, for showing that this could be done.

I wasn't sure what to make of the minifig heads at first. As I was working
on the cannon, I was unhappy with the way the torus primitives looked when
rendered with POV. Then I remembered the work Chuck had done on the heads.
To get more familiar with POV I set down and read the help files. Wow! What
a different and interesting world... (I'm still quite new at 3d cad work -
now only about a year)

Hopefully I will be able to help make a few more improvements.

Thanks again,

:-D

Paul
